Chapter 16 - Short Replies

Meg's POV

I ran across the hall and straight into my room like that was the only road on earth. I collapsed on the bad and stayed for what seemed like ages until my tears had drained.

Why did she have to say that? What concerns me is not what she said. I've known that all along. I'm just hurt cause every time i'd mention him she'd try to comfort me and do anything to make me believe that it's no one's fault, while now she said it like it was a fact. Mean.

I would always tell myself that he shouldn't matter to me. That he's not worth spending my thoughts on. But sometimes i go against my will.

He's my brother after all. Somehow i know that maybe years later everything will be fixed.

He didn't care and he still doesn't. That's what kills me inside. That's all. Him not caring.

He doesn't recognize me. The last time he has seen me i was probably hairless. I think i wouldn't recognize him either if it wasn't for all his pictures that get posted everyday on internet.

"Meg?" I heard Claire's soft voice.

I hope she couldn't tell i had been crying. My tears had drained anyways.

I didn't cry for long. My tears are precious and so is any other of my or anybody's emotion. And it's not worth wasting them for people who don't care.

"Meg are you ok?" she repeated my name. It seems as no big of a deal but the effect that it gives makes me believe that she kind of knows what's wrong.

"Uh yeah why wouldn't i be?" i tried to laugh.

"Cause you were running on the hall like a psycho and umm that doesn't really happen to you." She said and i laughed at her words. Times like this remind my why i love Claire so much. She's like a sister, like a best friend or both. And she's not even that old.

"I really missed my bed." I replied with a smile.

"Ok. That's cool. Would you like some hot chocolate." Yep she definitely knows something's wrong. I mean, summer's about to start and she offers me hot chocolate. She knows i like hot chocolate when i'm stressed, sad, emotional, on that time of the month and the list goes on and on and on.

I'm just saying a normal person wouldn't suggest it. A normal person would be like 'want some ice cream?'. But Claire's not that normal. She's special.

Who's normal anyways?

"Yeah sure." I said. I never say no to chocolate. I think that's illegal.

Sam's POV

Something inside me told me that i shouldn't tell Niall the truth. That Harry's the first one who deserves to know.

"So are you gonna say anything or..? " He asked.

"Now that i'm thinking it you seem a little bit of untrustable." and that was my final decision. "Bye." I said as i closed the door locking him inside.

Ok that was a bit mean. Speaking on mean, i have to go find Meg and apologize and tell her what i said wasn't true at all. The only problem here is that what's done can't be undone. And that her brother would care if he knew. But she won't believe me. She won't listen to me.

Now first let's go get Louis some food. Meanwhile Meg can spend some time alone and maybe she won't be that angry when i go talk to her. Genius!

"Hey Claire what are you doing here?" i asked when i noticed Claire in the kitchen.

"Just making some hot chocolate." she said without even looking at me.

"It's almost summer, right?" i think i need a new calendar.

"Yeah i know." She replied.

"Is that for Meg?" I asked after a moment of realization hit me.

"Yeah." She said. What's with those short replies.

"Is she really that sad?" i asked, almost begging she wasn't.

"Well she's not crying but it seemed like it to me." She shrugged.

"Ugh" Meg's not gonna forgive me easily.

"What did you do?" she asked.

"Nothing." I said knowing that's a stupid answer. She glanced at me. ".. I just said something i shouldn't" that pretty much sums it up.

Claire glanced at me again.

"I'll apologize don't worry!" i replied to her meaningful glance. She glanced again.

"Fine, i'll go right now." I was planning on giving Meg some time alone so i could figure what to say.

Before i left i grabbed a sandwich for Louis. I'm so happy we keep ready sandwiches on the fridge. It's the best idea we've ever had so far.

"Why did it took you so long?" Louis asked when i entered the room.

"Just.. nothing, nevermind." I said.

"Ok. Are you gonna eat that sandwich?" he asked when he noticed my sandwich.

"No. It's actually for you." I said as i handed him the sandwich.

"Then why did you bite it?" he asked.

"Just to make sure it wasn't poisonous." I shrugged. "Gotta go." I said and left before he could answer. Not that he was about to say anything.

I knocked on Meg's room.

"Come in!" she said. She must think i'm Claire. Sorry to disappoint her.

"Hi!" i said awkwardly when i entered.

"Oh it's you." she said with the most disappointed face i had ever seen i even felt sorry i entered.

"Uh yeah.. i-i wanted to apologize for... that. " I said. I'm so bad at this.

"Ok. Apology accepted. Now leave please." I know this method. She says she's forgiven me but she stills ignores me and just doesn't let it go.

"Meg, listen it wasn't true, i swear, i was mad and i kind if wanted to make you feel bad." I shrugged even though what i just said made me sound like i was so mean.

"Sam, it wasn't only about what you said. It's much more than that." She said looking me straight in the eyes.

"Wh-what do you mean?" i said but she wasn't able to reply cause Claire entered the room.

"Your chocolate's ready!" She smiled. "And Sam i brought you some ice cream." I love Claire.

"Thanks!" i smiled.

"Now Sam if you don't mind can you please leave me alone." Meg said.

"B-bu-"

"Please."

"Fine."
